severe damage to the machine and will void fac-
tory warranty.
Installation of the machine involves moving the machine
close to its permanent location, removing all crating, set-
ting in place, assembling parts, and cleaning.
A. Uncrate the machine.
B. Accurate leveling is necessary for correct drainage
of machine barrel and to insure correct overrun.
Place a bubble level on top of the machine at each
corner to check for level condition. If adjustment
is necessary, level the machine by turning the
bottom part of each leg in or out.
C. The machine has a base gasket that must be
installed. Separate the gasket and install it with
the seam to the back. Make sure the angled side
of the gasket is facing up.
D. Correct ventilation is required. The right side of
the machine is the air intake and left side is the
discharge. Both sides must have 3” clearance.
CAUTION
Failure to provide adequate ventilation will void
warranty.
E. Place the Main Freezer Power Off/On switch in
the OFF position.
F. Connect the power cord to the proper power
supply. The E111 has a NEMA5-20P and the
F111 has a NEMA6-15P. Check the nameplate on
your machine for proper supply. The unit must be
connected to a properly grounded receptacle. The
electrical cord furnished as part of the machine
has a three prong grounding type plug. The
use of an extension cord is not recommended,
if necessary use one with a size 12 gauge or
heavier with ground wire. Do not use an adapter
to circumvent the grounding requirement.

the serve mode. To start the machine, place the
Main Freezer Power OFF-ON switch in the ON
position and press the PUSH TO FREEZE button.
NOTE
After the drive motor starts, there is a 3 second
delay before the compressor starts.
D. LEDS
The membrane switch features two lights; a
green LED and an amber LED. The green LED
is lit during serve mode. During freeze down, the
green LED is not lit. When product consistency
approaches 75% in the freezing cylinder, the
green LED ashes. The amber LED is lit during all
other modes. In the event of an error or when the
freezing cylinder is off, both LEDs will alternatively
ash.
NOTE
If the machine shuts off, and alternating green and
amber lights are ashing, the machine is in an error
condition. If the LCD displays an error, turn the Main
Freezer Power OFF-ON switch to the OFF position,
correct the problem (Refer to Troubleshooting in
Section 4) and turn the machine back on.
E. CLEAN BUTTON
The CLEAN button will stop all refrigeration and
start auger rotation. A CLEAN message will display
on the LCD screen and a 5 minute timer begins.
To exit the CLEAN mode, press the CLEAN
button again. If the machine is left in CLEAN for
more than 20 minutes, it will go into an error to
prevent damage to the freezing cylinder. When
this error occurs, refrigeration will start to prevent
mix spoilage. To reset, place the Main Freezer
Power OFF-ON switch in the OFF position and
back in the ON position.
F. MIX LOW LIGHT INDICATOR
The MIX LOW message will appear on the
LCD display to alert the operator to a low mix
condition. The message will display when there is
approximately one gallon of mix left in the hopper.
When the MIX LOW message is displayed, re ll
hopper immediately.
NOTE
Failure to re ll hopper immediately may result in
operational problems.
G. DISPENSE RATE ADJUSTOR
The dispense rate adjuster limits the opening of
the spigot. To adjust product dispense rate, turn
the adjusting knob clockwise for slower ow and
counterclockwise for faster ow. It takes at least
ve complete turns of the adjusting knob to make
a noticeable difference in the dispense rate.
H. FRONT DOOR SAFETY SWITCH

3.3 IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING
CLEANING AND SANITIZING
Soft serve and shake machines require special consider-
ation when it comes to food safety and proper cleaning
and sanitizing.
The following information speci cally covers issues for
cleaning and sanitizing frozen dessert machines. This
information is meant to supplement a comprehensive
food safety program.
Soil Materials Associated with Frozen Dessert Ma-
chines
MILKFAT/BUTTERFAT – As components of ice-cream/
frozen custard mix, these soils will accumulate on the
interior surfaces of the machine and its parts. Fats are
dif cult to remove and help attribute to milkstone buildup.
MILKSTONE – Is a white/gray lm that forms on equip-
ment and utensils that are exposed to dairy products.
These lms will accumulate slowly on surfaces because of
ineffective cleaning, use of hard water, or both. Milkstone
is usually a porous deposit, which will harbor microbial
contaminants and eventually defy sanitizing efforts.
Once milkstone has formed, it is very dif cult to remove.
Without using the correct product and procedure, it is
nearly impossible to remove a thick layer of milkstone.
(NOTE: general-purpose cleaners DO NOT remove
milkstone.) This can lead to high bacteria counts and a
food safety dilemma.
IT IS BEST TO CONTROL MILKSTONE ON A DAILY BA-
SIS BEFORE IT CAN BECOME A SIGNIFICANT FOOD
SAFETY PROBLEM.
In addition to food safety, milkstone can cause prema-
ture wear to machine parts, which can add to costs for
replacement parts or possibly more expensive repairs
if worn machine parts are not replaced once they have
become excessively worn.
Important Differences Between Cleaning and Sani-
tizing
CLEANING vs. SANITIZING
It is important to distinguish between cleaning and sanitiz-
ing. Although these terms may sound synonymous, they
are not. BOTH are required for adequate food safety and
proper machine maintenance.
CLEANING
Is the removal of soil materials from a surface.
Is a prerequisite for effective sanitizing.
NOTE
An UNCLEAN surface will harbor bacteria that can
defy sanitizing efforts.
Bacteria can develop and resist sanitizing efforts within
a layer of soil material (milkstone). Thorough cleaning
procedures that involve milkstone removal are critical for
operators of frozen dessert machines.
SANITIZING
• Kills bacteria.
Can be effective on clean surfaces only.
NOTE
Using a SANITIZER on an unclean surface will not
guarantee a clean and safe frozen dessert machine.
Proper Daily Maintenance:
The Only Way to Assure Food Safety and Product Quality
Proper daily maintenance can involve a wide variety
of products and procedures. Overall, the products and
procedures fall into three separate categories. (Please
note that this is a brief overview intended for informational
purposes only.)
1. CLEANING – This involves draining mix from
the freezing cylinder and rinsing the machine
with water. Next, a cleaner is run through the
machine. Then, the machine is disassembled
and removable parts are taken to the sink for
cleaning.
2. MILKSTONE REMOVAL – Since most cleaners
do not have the ability to remove milkstone, the
use of a delimer becomes necessary. Although
this procedure may not be needed on a daily
basis, it will usually follow the cleaning procedure.
It requires letting a delimer solution soak in the
machine for an extended period. Individual parts
are also soaked in a deliming solution for an
extended period of time (more about delimers in
Additional Information).
3. SANITIZING – After the machine has been
cleaned and contains no milkstone, the machine
is reassembled. Then a FDA-approved sanitizing
solution is run through the machine to kill bacteria.
The machine is then ready for food preparation.
As a recommended cleaner and sanitizer for your frozen
dessert machine, STERA-SHEEN has proven to be one
of the best daily maintenance products for:
CLEANING – Thorough removal of all solids
including butterfat and milk fat.
MILKSTONE REMOVAL – Complete removal of
milkstone.
SANITIZING – FDA-approved no rinse sanitizer
for food contact surfaces.
Additional Information
THE USE OF DELIMERS
A delimer is a strong acid that has the ability to dissolve
milkstone. This type of chemical may become necessary
once high levels of milkstone have developed. While these
products are very effective for removing HIGH levels of
milkstone, they are not ideal for two reasons:
1. PRODUCT SAFETY – Strong acids are dangerous
chemicals. Carefully follow safety instructions
provided with delimer products.
Owners Manual #513532-5 8 E111I/F111I Model Machines
2. MACHINE DAMAGE – Strong acids will attack
metal and rubber causing premature wear of
parts. The use of a delimer needs to be closely
monitored to avoid damage to machine surfaces
and parts.
With proper daily use of STERA-SHEEN or its equivalent,
there is no need for the use of a DELIMER.
DO NOT USE BLEACH
BLEACH HAS ABSOLUTELY NO CLEANING
PROPERTIES.
BLEACH IS CORROSIVE. It will damage
components of the machine causing premature
wear and metal corrosion.
GENERAL PURPOSE CLEANERS
General purpose cleaners do not have the ability to re-
move milkstone. Milkstone will become a problem if not
remedied with additional products and procedures.
THE USE OF CHLORINE TEST STRIPS
“Test strips” are used to determine concentrations of
active chlorine in sanitizing solutions. To use the strips,
tear off a small portion and submerge it into the sanitizing
solution. Then, compare the color change to the color key
on the side of the test strip dispenser to determine the
approximate chlorine concentration.
The ideal concentration of chlorine needs to be 100 ppm
(as stated by the FDA).
NOTE
Follow the directions on the container for proper
concentration.
Two main factors contribute to falling chlorine concentra-
tions in a sanitizing solution.
1. PRODUCT USE – As the chlorine in the solution
is being used, chlorine concentrations fall.
2. TIME – As time passes, small amounts of chlorine
“evaporate” from the solution. (That is why you
can smell it.)
Sanitizing solutions should not be allowed to fall below
100 ppm chlorine. New solutions should be mixed once
old solutions become ineffective.
3.4 DISASSEMBLY OF PARTS
Inspection for worn or broken parts should be made each
time the machine is disassembled. All worn or broken
parts should be replaced to ensure safety to both the
operator and the customer and to maintain good machine
performance and a quality product. Check the wear line on
the auger ights on a regular basis (Fig. 3-3) and replace
as needed. Frequency of cleaning must comply with the
local health regulations.
To disassemble the machine, refer to the following steps:
A. Remove hopper cover and drain tray.
B. Remove the mix inlet regulator from the hopper
by pulling straight up.
C. Remove the front door by turning the circular
knobs and then pulling the front door off the studs.
D. Remove the rosette cap from the front door. Push
the spigot body through the bottom of the front
door and remove.
E. Remove the front auger support and bushing (Fig.
3-4).
WARNING
Hazardous Moving Parts
Revolving auger shaft can grab and cause injury.
Place the Main Freezer Power OFF-ON switch in
the OFF position before disassembling for cleaning
or servicing.
Figure 3-3 Auger Flight Wear
Wear Line
Figure 3-4 Removing Auger Support
Owners Manual #513532-5 9 E111I/F111I Model Machines
F. Remove the auger assembly from the machine
(Fig. 3-5). Pull the auger out of the machine barrel
slowly. As the auger is being pulled out, carefully
remove each of the plastic ights with springs.
G. Keep the rear of the auger shaft tipped up once
it is clear of the machine to avoid dropping rear
seal.
H. Remove the rear seal.
I. Wipe socket lubricant from the drive end (rear)
of the auger with a cloth or paper towel.
J. Remove all o-rings from parts by rst wiping off
the lubricant using a clean paper towel. Then
squeeze the o-ring upward with a dry cloth (Fig.
3-6). When a loop is formed, roll out of the o-ring
groove.
3.5 CLEANING DISASSEMBLED PARTS
Disassembled parts require complete cleaning, sanitiz-
ing and air drying before assembling. Local and state
health codes will dictate the procedure required. Some
state health codes require a four sink process (pre-wash,
wash, rinse, sanitize, air dry), while others require a three
sink process (without the pre-wash step). The following
procedures are a general guideline only. Consult your
local and state health codes for the procedures required
in your location.
A. Disassemble all parts. (Refer to Section 3.4 for
the disassembly of machine parts.)
B. Place all front door and auger parts in clean 90° to
110°F (32°C to 43°C) water and wash thoroughly
(four sink procedure only).
C. Place all parts in 90° to 110°F (32°C to 43°C) mild
detergent water and wash thoroughly.
D. Rinse all parts with clean 90° to 110°F (32°C to
43°C) water.
E. Sanitize all machine parts following procedures
outlined below.
3.6 SANITIZING PARTS
A. Use a sanitizer, mixed according to manufacturer’s
instructions, to provide a 100 parts per million
strength solution. Mix sanitizer in quantities of
no less than 2 gallons of 90° to 110°F (32°C to
43°C) water. Any sanitizer must be used only in
accordance with the manufacturers instructions.
B. Place all parts in the sanitizing solution for 5
minutes, then remove and let air dry completely
before assembling in machine.
3.7 CLEANING THE MACHINE
The exterior should be kept clean at all times to preserve
the luster of the stainless steel. A high grade of stainless
steel has been used on the machine to ease cleanup. To
remove spilled or dried mix, wash the exterior with 90° to
110°F (32°C to 43°C) soapy water and wipe dry.
Do not use highly abrasive materials, as they will mar the
nish. A mild alkaline cleaner is recommended. Use a soft
cloth or sponge to apply the cleaner. For best results, wipe
with the grain of the steel.
A. Clean the rear seal surface from inside of the
freezing cylinder.
B. Using sanitizing solution and the large barrel
brush provided, sanitize the freezing cylinder by
dipping the brush in the sanitizing solution and
brushing the inside of the freezing cylinder.
C. Remove the drip tray by pulling from the front
panel. Clean and replace the drip tray.
Figure 3-6 Removing O-Ring
CAUTION
Do not use any type of sharp object to remove the
o-rings.

Owners Manual #513532-5 10 E111I/F111I Model Machines
3.8 ASSEMBLING MACHINE
To assemble the machine parts, refer to the following steps:
NOTE
Petrol Gel sanitary lubricant or equivalent must be
used when lubrication of parts is speci ed.
NOTE
The United States Department of Agriculture and
the Food and Drug Administration require that lubri-
cants used on food processing equipment be certi-
ed for this use. Use lubricants only in accordance
with the manufacturers instructions.
A. Assemble all o-rings onto parts dry, without
lubrication. Then apply a thin lm of sanitary
lubrication to exposed surfaces of the o-rings.
Apply a thin lm of sanitary lubricant to metal
part of rear seal. Also apply a thin lm of sanitary
lubricant inside and outside of the front auger
support bushing.
B. Assemble the rear seal onto the auger with the
large end to the rear. Be sure the o-ring is in place
before installing the rear seal.
C. Lubricate the auger drive (rear) with a small
amount of white socket lubricant. A small container
of socket lubricant is shipped with the machine.
D. Screw the springs onto the studs in plastic
ights. Springs must be screwed into the ights
completely to provide proper compression (Fig.
3-7).
E. Install the two plastic ights onto rear of the auger
and insert part way into machine barrel.
F. Install the remaining plastic ights, push the auger
into the machine barrel and rotate slowly until the
auger engages the drive shaft.
G. Install the bushing and auger support into the front
of the auger with one leg of the support pointing
straight down (“Y” position).
H. Install the spigot body with o-ring into the front
door from bottom (Fig. 3-8). Push straight up until
the spigot is in place.
I. Install the front door on the machine.
J. Install the circular knobs on the machine studs.
K. Look for the proper seal between the freezing
cylinder, o-ring, and front door.

Owners Manual #513532-5 11 E111I/F111I Model Machines
3.9 SANITIZING
Sanitizing must be done after the machine is cleaned and
just before the hopper is lled with mix. Sanitizing the night
before is not effective. However, you should always clean
the machine and parts after each use.
THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICUL-
TURE AND THE FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION
REQUIRE THAT ALL CLEANING AND SANITIZING
SOLUTIONS USED WITH FOOD PROCESSING EQUIP-

3.12 MIX INFORMATION
Mix can vary considerably from one manufacturer to
another. Differences in the amount of butterfat content
and quantity and quality of other ingredients have a
direct bearing on the nished frozen product. A change
in machine performance that cannot be explained by a
technical problem may be related to the mix.
Proper product serving temperature varies from one
manufacturers mix to another. Mixes should provide a
satisfactory product in the 17°F to 24°F range. Diet and
low-carb mixes typically freeze to proper consistency at
higher temperatures.
When checking the temperature, stir the thermometer in
the frozen product to get an accurate reading.
Old mix, or mix that has been stored at too high a tempera-
ture, can result in a nished product that is unsatisfactory.
